Wheel Color For LR Suggestions

Just wanted to know what color would best suite my MRR GT1s to compliment my car! I've been contemplating on getting them Black Chrome, Gunmetal, Satin Black with Polished Lip or just refinishing my current flat black paint on it! Not really looking to catch any attention! Just want something sporty yet classy that will compliment the colors well!

Here are some pics of my G:





As for people that will suggest a drop, I don't have the privilege to do that! My driveway is to deep and narrow to even consider that and even at stock height, I am already scraping! I guess I need to move to a new apartment in order to be able to drop my car! Hehe!

i have glossy black on my pentas with red time attack ring on my LR...it looks nice but i think it hides the lip too much so im hoping to refinish them in Black Chrome...so my vote is black chrome or maybe gunmetal metallic.......btw you can always get air bags and raise up your car when your going up your drive way.

Yea, I did that with my stock 18's! It kinda gives me a flat dimension as far as color blending goes! It just gives me a black and red theme basically! Hehe! I'm actually thinking of mix matching! Maybe get black chrome lip but I really want just 1 color so that it'll be cheaper! Hehe!

I actually like the formula silver color too:



How much do air bags cost though? I think it's illegal here in Cali or something! I think I read something about it when I was reading about the laws on car height!

Thanks man! Don't really like gold though but i'm kinda considering how Dranom's wheel color blends!

Hmmmm...not really fond of gold man! Do you have pics of them on your car? I think I've seen those on a LR car here that got wrecked!





Here are some wheel ideas for LR i've seen around:

Won't it look kinda tacky though man? Baka too shiny?

Here's a probable sample of that:

And here's Hyperblack with polished lip:



Formula Silver with polished lip looks promising too:



Black Onyx wheels are nice too:

Yeah those are nice! If Volk offered Formula Silver back when I got my GTS, I def would have gotten it. Formula Silver is sexy with polished lip.

Step 1: Move
Step 2&3: Get those Volk G10 & DROP!
